update the Device at SCT.com those guys will walk you through it if you cant figure it out.. Sometimes you need to update a driver for the USB so it sees the hand held.

Download at SCT there latest software for the device and for the PC that you will put the tune on the car with..

download the tune from edelbrock talk with Ed by phone I have never in my life not picked up the phone and been able to talk to that old timer! or calibrations@edelbrock.com

transfer tune file to SCT tuner.. there will be 3 depending on octane

follow direction on tuner screen to load tune to cars computer.

if this doesn't work you missed a step or screwed something up on the install..
All good now. See my update a few posts up.

I'm glad you got your problem resolved. I'm sure Edelbrock is among the best at what they do and they have been very good to me to this point... However, at the end of my install I've been receiving a check engine light...Onstar even notified me of an environmental issue with my car...lol. The codes are P0171 and P0174 lean fuel mixture in banks 1 and 2.

I'm waiting for a call back from Edelbrock as I pen this comment. Wish me luck.

I had to remove E-Force. Made no HP. Ever.

This has been super frustrating.
Yeah I have been through hell with the programming too. GM changed their security on their ECU's to keep people like us from doing just what we are doing. No matter who I had program it. The supercharger was just like having a metal paperweight ruining our clutch. So I just took mine off and my R/S V6 is happy again. 😊
